"Yes, that's the railway." Wang Xuan came to the railway and looked at the rails laid on the sleepers. He stretched out his feet and kicked them. Well, they were fixed quite firmly.
Seeing Wang Xuan's actions, Zhang Fei also became interested. He went up and kicked him. Then his eyes lit up and he didn't kick!
Turning his head to see that Wang Xuan hadn't noticed him, Zhang Fei's eyes lit up, he increased his strength and kicked again, 'Boom'!
The sudden sound startled Wang Xuan, and when he turned his head, he was shocked and said, "Asshole, stop!"
Zhang Fei's kick just now didn't even move, so his interest immediately increased, and he started to move his Gang Qi directly. Black Gang Qi rose up all over his body, he raised his right leg high, mobilized all the muscles in his thigh, and kicked towards the rails with all his strength.
past.
"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and then the whole ground shook violently.
"┗|｀O′|┛Ouch~~" Zhang Fei's big black face suddenly turned red, and his eyes almost popped out of his sockets. He held his feet in both hands and jumped in pain. The boots on his right feet
It was completely broken, and the feet covered with black hair swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Wang Xuan lowered his head to look at the deformed section of railway track, then turned to look at the big black face that was clenching his teeth to endure the pain, and he got so angry that he kicked Zhang Fei on the butt.
After all, Wang Xuan was also in the realm of Qi cultivation. He kicked Zhang Fei, who was jumping on one leg, more than three meters away. Zhang Fei ignored the pain in his feet and limped back a few steps before standing on his heels and looking up.
Wang Xuan, who had a cold face, twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing an awkward yet polite smile with a hint of aggrievement, "I, I, I saw you kicked first, I just wanted to think about it, you might try
You can’t tell how strong he is.”
"Holy shit..." Looking at this idiot, Wang Xuan didn't know what to say, he just kicked him casually. Besides, it's not the time to test his anti-destruction ability!
This piece of rail is ten meters long, linked together from front to back, with thick sleepers underneath. This is a railway designed to carry hundreds of tons of carriages. This iron man actually kicked it with his feet. What a damn...foot
It's okay, so I'm convinced.
"Slide to the side." Wang Xuan glared at Zhang Fei, and could only tell people to replace this section of railway track quickly, so as not to delay the test activities for a while.
A group of people quickly got busy, moved a new section of railway track and began to dismantle and replace it. With such effort, Zhang Fei's foot was almost restored, but the shoe was completely broken into pieces. Zhang Fei, who had one big bare foot, didn't feel it.
What? He came over again, looked at the busy staff, and asked Wang Xuan with a chuckle: "Why aren't these rails longer? Isn't it easier to install them?"
"Aren't you just in case your iron rails get damaged? It would be easier to replace them!" Wang Xuan glanced at Zhang Fei and replied: "In addition, it's also because the rails are not completely straight, so some places need to be repaired.
Come out of the arc."
Zhang Fei suddenly understood, Liu Bei and Guan Yu nodded secretly.
Looking at the track that was five centimeters thick, Zhang Fei had a distressed look on his face, "Oh, Zai Zhi, why don't you use wood to make the track? If you use rails to lay a railway that runs from east to west, this
How much money will it cost?”
When Zhang Fei said this, Liu Bei also reacted, but after thinking about it for a moment, his face began to turn pale, and he muttered in a low voice and began to calculate the cost, "A rail is ten meters long, and it weighs about two tons, which is 4,000 kilograms."
Two rails weigh 8,000 kilograms, and one kilometer weighs 800,000 kilograms. The original iron output of Dahan was only 5 million kilograms a year. In other words, the original iron production was not enough to lay a 6-kilometer railway. There are 1,000 kilometers from Chang'an to Linzi. This is still
Not counting the labor and construction costs involved in making the rails..."
At this point, Liu Bei couldn't help but his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat. He opened his mouth wide but was out of breath, shaking as if he was about to fall into a coma - it was so distressing!
"Brother!"
"Brother!"
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei quickly supported Liu Bei. Zhang Fei shouted anxiously: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Don't die!"
"Get out!" Liu Bei pushed Zhang Fei away, and asked Wang Xuan with his pale face and trembling lips: "Zai Zhi, are you sure we want to build a railway? Do we have so much money!"
Wang Xuan heard what Liu Bei was mumbling just now, and could only say helplessly: "It's not that exaggerated. First of all, our iron output is much larger now. In addition, this is also an experimental model, and we will definitely not use it in the future.
After all, it’s pulled by carriages, not trains.”
Huh~~, Liu Bei took a deep breath and finally felt relieved. He still believed in Wang Xuan and his words were always accurate.
"Zai Zhi, aren't you afraid that the rails will be stolen? Iron is still very valuable!" Zhang Fei stretched his big head over again.
Wang Xuan was slightly stunned. He had really never considered this matter. Stealing the railway tracks?
In modern times, no one dares. The key is that it can't be sold, but now, it's really hard to say... Wang Xuan hasn't considered this matter yet.
Seeing that Wang Xuan was deep in thought, Zhang Fei immediately became proud, walked back and forth in front of Wang Xuan several times, and said in a somewhat sullen voice: "Look, bringing me here is still useful, how do you think of this!"
"Sure enough, a wise man will always make a mistake after a thousand worries, and a fool will always gain something after a thousand worries!" Wang Xuan curled his lips and sighed.
"puff!"
After all, Liu Bei was not as good as Guan Yu. Guan Yu just suppressed his face and became even redder, but Liu Bei burst out laughing.
"Go back and bury the bottom part with cement. Let's see who can steal it out." Wang Xuan glanced at Zhang Fei and said.
At this moment, the new rails were finally replaced. Wang Xuan and his party came to the big house above. The first thing that caught their eyes was a huge wooden carriage with six steel wheels. The carriage was two and a half meters high and 2.5 meters wide.
Two and a half meters long, it is four meters long. The load capacity of this car alone can be more than four times that of an ordinary four-wheeled carriage, and there are four carriages connected front to back on the railway.
"Wow!" Seeing this scene, Liu Bei and the others couldn't help but exclaimed. Just thinking about how much supplies could be carried at one time made the three of them surprised.
"How much grain and grass can be transported this time?" Guan Yu is most concerned about the problem of grain and grass. In his opinion, the more grain and grass can be transported faster, the greater the help to one's own war potential. The three armies went ahead without moving grain and grass, which troubled the Han war.
The potential is never combat power but the ability to supply food and grass.
If it were not for the lack of food and grass supplies, the Western Regions would not have established the so-called Protectorate, but would have been directly placed under the territory of the Han Dynasty. The same applies to the grasslands.
"If it is transporting grain and grass, four trucks can transport 32 tons, which converts to about 550 shi." The supervisor in charge of the test said to Guan Yu: "It's just that the specific carrying capacity has not been accurately measured, and it is not easy to estimate yet."
"Okay, let's start the test!" Wang Xuan ordered directly.
"No." The supervisor responded and began to direct everyone to move.
I saw four horses brought over on their backs and tied to the special shaft of the car. With everything ready, the coachman pulled a bell at hand and made a crisp sound as a reminder. Then he slowly pulled the handbrake and waved his whip.
As the coachman drove, the four horses began to pull the frame of the carriage and slowly accelerated.
Liu Bei and others quickly followed him out to see how fast they could go. Just a few steps out, a gust of wind blew past them. Zhang Fei had already jumped out quickly, jumping directly to the roof of the car in three steps and two steps at a time.
As the speed of the car became faster and faster, Zhang Fei, who was standing on the roof of the car, crouched and laughed.
